This sounds like an important text whose time has come. Kudos to Marco for taking the initiative!

My only observation at this point is that Marco's native tongue is not English and the website reflects this. Most of the time this presents no problem or only minor annoyance, but sometimes it results in unparseable "sentences". I hope that Marco finds a native English speaker to collaborate on the project and enlists his or her proofreading services.

"Marco's native tongue is not English... sometimes [this] results in unparseable "sentences".

Jabby, and everybody else:

thanks for your approval! As far as language is concerned, you are surely right. I am working to have the whole text proofread before publishing the book: in the meantime, it would greatly help me if all the readers could let me know (through the address on the Digifreedom website) which sentences are not correct. Apart from the book, I always appreciate any occasion to improve my English.

Thanks in advance,

Marco Fioretti
